Still reading Sleeping Beauties by Stephen King. I am a little over 4/7th of the book (almost 400 pages out of 700 pages). The book wasn't what I thought it was. It isn't about the world after all the women fell asleep, it's about when they stated to fall asleep, with some supernatural stuff mixed in, which I think is present in most of King's books.

I am enjoying the book, and going to read more of his work. Maybe not right after this though.

What about you all? What are you guys reading?

I'm about 75% done with The Bonfire of the Vanities by Tom Wolfe, and about 50% done with Anxious People by Fredrick Backman. I'm enjoying both more than I thought I would.

The Bonfire of the Vanities "has often been called the quintessential novel of the 1980s", as per Wikipedia. I guess I need to read it now.

Anxious People also looks interesting. Would love to hear how you liked them, once you have finished them.
